Okay, I must shut up now before someone tries to take my ovaries away.

I have to admit, I did not want to watch it because 'A Walk To Remember' {?} was too sappy for me. Too sweet? But yes, I don't like books/movies that set out to make me cry, soul purpose being so. I held off crying at the end of this one. I wanted to absorb it and not get lost in the sadness. I actually felt it wasn't really sad, rather, beautiful.

They didn't make the characters deep enough. I hope the book is better at that.

Hmmm...I need to see the Japanese version of The Ring. Is it worth it? I saw the Japanese version of 'The Grudge'. I understand that was actually a t.v. series in Japan? I can imagine it, what with the curse and all. Oooo!

Claire, I think you can keep your ovaries. But, if anyone takes yours, you can have mine.
